Yesterday's Crypto and traditional market sell off in response to the FOMC 50bp hike is a strong sign that market participants believe there is more downside yet to come in 2022. As I mentioned in my post yesterday. Link 👇 there are a number of key resistance levels which $BTC had to overcome. The market sent a strong signal yesterday that, for now, those levels...
So the FOMC rate hike of 50bps last night had an immediate positive impact on crypto and traditional markets. There was allot of fear in the markets and the Fed has provided a pressure relief valve. Traders should remain cautious however as a number of key technical hurdles remain before we can release the bulls! A convergence of technical indicators at the same...
BTC has caught a bounce over the last few days off the back of a general improvement in market sentiment (S&P, Nasdaq). BTC is still highly correlated to the equities market. IMHO there is not a decent trade at this level where we find ourselves in the middle of a range ($43K, lower = $39K, upper = $48K). There is a huge amount of previous resistance at $48K...
Assuming that 69K USD turns out to be the top of this latest $BTC bull run and we are not in the midst of a bear market - the key question is how low can we go? Here I offer up two scenarios which are using the bar pattern from the last crash in 2018/19: Scenario 1 (orange bars) - mimics the length and severity of the last crash - Copied bar pattern and retained...
I agree with the general analysis by www.tradingview.com in his related idea (link below). My thinking is that the bullish falling wedge will play out as shown in my chart. The last local high at $51K (27th Dec) will be the first touch of the top of the wedge and then further touches will form before we breakout to the upside. Basically my belief is that we...
This idea is Short (short term), Long (long term). There is heated debate right now on whether BTC has yet reached its top in this cycle. BTC is range-bound against USD (detail not shown) between $46K and $51K. A break out will probably lead to retest of ATH and possibly new price discovery. A break down would then leave the £40K level as the last support for...
Monero, along with other alts, has been showing strength against the dollar over the past three weeks. History tells us that alts often pop before Bitcoin so I am starting to look at set ups for a number of alts which I think are strong projects. I'm not saying the bottom is in but its at least a good time to evaluate the market for opportunities. With that said...

When all is said and done, BTC is returning back to the support level it was at back in 2016 & 2017 (black line). If BTC respects this level in 2018 then it will drop and recover at 2200-2500. This is also a level where BTC found allot of support/resistance May-July 2017 (yellow line) before the big leg up to 20000. This creates a long term level of confluence...
